This is hardy geranium ‘Rozanne’. Known for its long flowering period it is a popular variety. It is also a sprawler so if you have plenty of room / deep borders then you’ll love it. A bit too vigorous for me so I am going to have to rethink the location.
I love Roxanne but she is SUCH a thug. Between her and her neighbour, Tiny Monster, there is geranium carnage in my border! I daren’t turn my back on them!
Gorgeous colour and a tempting flowering plant Jude it would perk up my borders no end at the moment but maybe a vigorous sprawler might not be such a good idea 🙂 even now it’s all about ‘keeping it back’ in the garden especially after the rains recently !
Interesting to hear that others find Rozanne a thuggish sprawler too. I have three clumps, one well behaved, one a bit miserable and the third gloriously rampant.
It is lovely, but as you say, it doesn’t know when enough is enough!
I need to be more ruthless in trimming it next year.
So does everyone!
We probably all do!
Lovely Rozanne – mine needs splitting because it’s running out of room too. 🙂
Mine is not a large plant, but it sprawls dreadfully. I might try splitting it and planting bits around the garden.
Mine too. It needs to be shifted for it’s own sake – if it sprawls too far out it’s likely to be ‘tidied’ by DH!
Ahh, another beautifully color addition to my morning. Thanks.
You are most welcome 😊
Gorgeous
I hope you manage to find a good spot for it :). Amelia
I have a couple of areas in mind, but I will need to trim it more next year.
Such a pretty colour!

*Rozanne. Though actually I think ‘Roxanne’ is a better name for her! 🙂
Roxanne was the name I had in mind for my 4th child if it had been a girl 😂
Now there’s a great name! Tiny Monster!
